Grand Seiko Scales Down Its Legendary 9F Movement: SBGX359 and SBGX361

Grand Seiko introduces two 33mm quartz watches that bring the iconic Snowflake and Skyflake dials to a new, smaller audience. The SBGX359 and SBGX361 represent the brand’s first significant update to its 9F quartz family in six years, housing the newly developed Calibre 9F51. These new references continue Grand Seiko’s tradition of drawing inspiration from the Hotaka mountain range in Nagano…

HemlockClan - “The Poison That Heals”

HemlockClan made their home in a pine forest with absurdly soft mossy ground.  The other Clans regarded them as strange, stupid, and air-headed.  HemlockClan cats certainly tended to be more spiritual than their neighbors, and had quite the number of superstitions- you’d never find a Hemlock cat stepping into a circle of mushrooms, that’s for sure!

HemlockClan named themselves after water hemlock, a deeply poisonous plant that’s one of the few flowers that grows on their territory.  They have a number of beliefs about poison, chiefly among them being that it’s the most dignified way to die.  HemlockClan cats, upon coming to the realization that their death is approaching, will seek out poison to consume.  Healers will feed their patients poison as they die.  Bodies are laid to rest among hemlock flowers by the oldest cats due to their deadliness.  These beliefs are where the Clan’s motto, “The Poison That Heals”, comes from.

HemlockClan brought moss, sweet woodruff, sweatroot, and wild ginger as trade with the other Clans.  Though healers highly appreciated the herbs, the moss was in high demand from everyone else due to its softness.

The last known HemlockClan leader was Sandstar.  Her deputy and healers were Erminedrift, Skyflake, Beachbee, and Pinepaw respectively.  There are no known HemlockClan survivors at this time.
